Simulated Number of Birds in Flock for 3rd Generation**
* Divide each flock's total pieces of food by 300, the total number of pieces of food eaten.
** Multiply the food percentage for each flock by the total number of birds (30).

Answer 1

Here are the calculations.

Total pieces of food eaten per flock: 32, 180, 88 (total = 300).

Step 1 — Food percentage (each flock ÷ 300):
- Flock 1: 32/300 = 0.1066667 = 10.67%
- Flock 2: 180/300 = 0.6 = 60.00%
- Flock 3: 88/300 = 0.2933333 = 29.33%

Step 2 — Simulated number of birds for 3rd generation (food % × 30 birds):
- Flock 1: 10.67% × 30 = 3.2 birds
- Flock 2: 60.00% × 30 = 18.0 birds
- Flock 3: 29.33% × 30 = 8.8 birds

(These add to 30.0; if you need integer birds, you can round — e.g. 3, 18, 9 — but that will change the total slightly.)
